Research focuses on exploring the physical processes
of large earthquakes with various modern geophysical observations,
such as broadband seismograms, high-rate GPS, and radar interferometry.
Model III of the Mar 11, 2011 Mw 9.1 Honshu Earthquake
A maximum slip of almost 50 meters (165 feet) occurred on the fault accompanying the Japan earthquake.

Current research interests:
- Developing real-time finite fault inversion systems to quickly evaluate the catastrophic tragedies caused by large shallow earthquakes in regional and teleseismic distances.
- Globally surveying the seismic nucleation phases of great earthquakes
- Analyzing the uncertainties associated with the source models of large earthquakes
- Capturing the "early" post-seismic deformation following the large earthquakes by joint inverting the seismic and geodetic data
